Argegno,
WE LOOK FORWARD TO WELCOMING YOU TO VILLA PANORAMICA . WE FEEL WE ARE NOW READY TO ENTERTAIN OUR GUESTS AGAIN AND HAVE LOWERED OUR PRICES CONSIDERABLY.
Situated in a prominent and elevated position, just above the delightful village of Argegno, on the western shores of Lake Como, you will enjoy breathtaking, panoramic views of Bellagio, Comacina Island and the 'Balbianello' promontory (DO NOT miss a visit to the Villa Balbianello during your stay.)
We've called it VILLA PANORAMICA for a reason!!
Located on the top floor of a small new house, built in the grounds of an 18th century villa, it is completely self contained and although only minutes walk to the village, is very secluded.
Everything here is new, but fits in perfectly with the style of the houses built along the lake and in the mountains over the last centuries,with wood beam ceilings, ceramic floors throughout and Italian tiles in the kitchen, and bathrooms. (High chair and crib for small children are available.
6 people can sleep here comfortably and lucky who sleeps in the sofa bed, you will wake up to stunning views of the sunrise over the mountains across the lake.
The 2 bedrooms and bathrooms are seperated from the living area by a sliding glass door. There is a TV in each bedroom.
The bedrooms are large and comfortable, with spacious mirrored closets, one has an en-suite bathroom and the other has the other bathroom, with jacuzzi tub, right outside the door.There is satelite TV, DVD, surround music system and a variety of CDs and DVDs for you to enjoy, while relaxing and taking in the views.
Ideal for all types of holiday, winter and summer and for short weekend breaks and business trips.
Of course, there are many vacation rental apartments all around Lake Como, this is NOT a vacaation rental, it is our apartment, created and furnished to be used year round and we take advantage of it ourselves, when we can. Although we live only 10 minutes drive away in the hills, we find it so relaxing here, just sitting on the terrace watching local life carry on in the village and on the lake.
Argegno is in an excellent stratigic position. It is easy to reach all the other towns on the lake by ferry, bus and car, you couldn't aske for a more convenient point.
'Villa Panoramica' is only a 15 minute drive away from Cernobbio, the world famous hotel Villa D'este and the famous Villa Erba, where many exhibitions and trade fairs are held, the City of Como is a 20 minute drive away and of course Como is the silk capital of Italy, so there are many silk and textile factory outlets and shops in the town of Como.Milan is 50 kms, 1 hours drive, so it is also ideal for combining a holiday with the world famous 'Monza Grand Prix', or any other sporting or business events which you may wish to attend in Milan.
All travel information will be provided to guests enquiring about the apartment, as will a welcome book (provided in the apartment) with the local tours and suggested walking itineries in the area, local information and suggested boat trips.
It is also five minutes drive away from the 'Villa Oleandra' the villa acquired from the Heinz family by George Clooney, and George has been spotted in Argegno often mixing with the local people.
The Villa Fontanella, once inhabited by Gianni Versacci is 10 minutes drive away.
Villa Panoramica is also ideal for those who do not want to be troubled with driving in Italy. The local bus stops directly below the villa and so does the local boat. There is also a public bus service from Milan Malpensa airport and Como is also well served by the international train service. We can also offer an excellent English speaking taxi driver service, which is available on request. Switzerland is also a short drive away, 45 minutes by car,in fact, Argegno sits at the foot of the 'valle Intelvi' a beautiful open valley which links Lake Como to Lake Lugano in Switzerland where you can find the City of Lugano, Campione D'italia, with it's famous 'Casino' and lovely lake front walk.The famous 'Jet set resort of St. Moritz is a two hour drive away.

Absolute paradise!!! Incredible views of Lake Como from the wrap around patio. Beautiful accommodation. Bed was comfortable, lots of room. Laundry machine worked and came with easy to follow instructions. It was as advertised. Used the English speaking taxi driver. He was excellent and I highly recommend taking advantage of using him. The owner is always available by text and is prompt with replies. It truly is a slice of heaven. Be aware the street below is on a hill and the vehicle noise, especially motorcycles were loud when sitting on the patio. They could not be heard from the bedroom though.
Loved staying in Argegno. Sylvania was a wonderful host and we were incredibly happy with the house. The view was beyond our expectations. Will definitely return.
The views from the patio of Lake Como is unbelievable. Overall this place was very comfortable with everything we needed for our stay in Argegno and easy access to the town. Silvana was great to work with and stopped in to make sure everything was ok. Couldn't ask for a better experience!! Would definitely stay here again.
The patio and views at Silvana’s place are beyond belief! Just as shown- you have many places to lounge and watch the ferries and fishing boats come and go. We are two retired couples and there was plenty of room for us for our 6 night stay. Silvana is so lovely, very receptive and easy to work with. The kitchen had what you needed, but Argegno had so many good restaurants that we only cooked breakfast and made snacks. There is a cobblestone walkway into the village which we walked daily. The ferry is right there to take you to the other lake towns and villas you might want to explore. We all have knee or back issues so bought tickets on the bus which comes up the hill. Silvana can explain the bus schedules but the shop that sells tickets has short hours so you need to memorize those if you don’t want to walk the hill. This is not a tourist town so no souvenir shops which I appreciated but the best gelato ever! Do be aware that if two couples are traveling, as with many rentals, the bedrooms are not equal. One is quite dark for sleeping, with twin beds. The larger bedroom has a view. I highly recommend this rental and this charming town!
Very comfortable and convenient with a stunning view. Property manager/owner was fantastic. Will definitely return.
A very comfortable apartment with everything you need, and an amazing view that has to be seen to be believed. Others have mentioned the steep climb up from the town centre and the traffic noise, but we quickly got used to both. Take a small car if you want to use the parking space!
The apartment was even better in real life, the photos don’t do the apartment and the balcony justice. The kitchen is very well equipped. The views and proximity to Argengno are fantastic for a short stay. The only downside is the noise from the traffic, at times it is extremely noisy and not very relaxing. Elena and Silvana are wonderful responsive hosts. Thank you.
We stayed here for close to two weeks over Christmas and New Years and it was a little slice of paradise. The apartment is even nicer than the pictures suggest with a view that is unforgettable. The apartment is very well appointed and Silvana was brilliant to work with before and during our stay. There is a walk uphill from the town but it took only 10 minutes up and 5 or less on the way down. Argegno is a charming village - big enough for regular bus and ferry service but not touristy. We enjoyed a great meal at La P'Osteria and several cafes in town but did eat at home often - and used the BBQ which was a treat for my husband - as we had a young child who was not always up for late night meals. We can't recommend this spot highly enough and hope to come back again - soon!
Splendid location with magnificent views over Lake Como on three sides of the apartment. Plenty of room for two couples, though one bathroom has bathtub with hand-held shower head and no curtain. Well-equipped kitchen has large frig an easy-to-use dishwasher. Very comfortable terrace with couch and chairs. Wi-fi weak and intermittent. Parking place adequate for only a very small car, so on-street parking is the better choice. Argegno is a lovely and pleasant village central to interesting sights on the west side of Lake Como. Silvana is very friendly and welcoming.
Villa Panorama is a perfect place to enjoy the beauty of Lake Como. The pictures understate the spectacular views from the veranda that runs across the length of the apartment. It was perfect for two couples with nice sized bedrooms, two very nice baths, a spacious living/dining area, a great kitchen that was fully equipped for any type of meal preparation, and a washing machine. We had full access to wireless internet which worked well. There is room for a small car that was protected by a gate. There is a steep walking path down to the town, but we are in our 60’s and had no problem with it. Silvana was very helpful and had a fully prepared list of restaurants and local sights. For us, Villa Panorama was a perfect place to stay on Lake Como and we will definitely return.
